About the Practice
When your child is already under hospital care, physiotherapy has to connect with the wider clinical team and the reality waiting at home. Royal Belfast Hospital for Sick Children Physiotherapy helps Belfast families understand what physical support their child needs and what can change at home, school, clinic or hospital. The focus is practical progress: better movement, safer confidence, clearer exercises and less fear around the next step.

Why Work With Us?
Royal Belfast Hospital Route: Parents get a clearer route through movement, development or rehabilitation concerns, with the right level of paediatric physiotherapy input for the child in front of them.
MDT Hospital Planning: Support looks beyond a single exercise sheet and connects therapy with the places where your child actually has to move, play, learn and recover.
Regional Children’s Hospital Access: Royal Belfast Hospital pathway options help families across Belfast, East Belfast, South Belfast, Dundonald, Bangor, Lisburn, Newry, Cookstown and wider Northern Ireland choose a pathway that fits the child, the timetable and the level of clinical need.
